Storyline

Postscript

  • The Doctor: "Well, whatever you intended, Captain Janeway will be pleased–the multiphasic temporal transporter has been destroyed. But I detected some very strange biologic readings just before its demise."
  • choice A
    • Captain: "Strange in what way, Doctor?"
    • The Doctor: "Something–or someone–with an incalculable mass and off-the-charts biorhythms appeared briefly, and then vanished. We believe it was brought forth through the transporter prior to its self-destruction."
  • choice B
    • Captain: "That thing was a death trap, no wonder we're in this mess!"
    • The Doctor: MISSING
  • choice C
    • Captain: "I assume since you're still here, that didn't fix everything."
    • The Doctor: MISSING
  • The Doctor: "It may have been flung right back into the past, it may have been vaporized–I'm afraid it's impossible to tell now. In any case, our investigation into this matter is complete. Captain Janeway is waiting to speak with you at a secure location."
  • choice A
    • Captain: "Thank you, Doctor. I'll head there immediately."
  • choice B
    • Captain: "I'll recommend you receive a commendation."
  • choice C
    • Captain: "Make sure all traces of you are out of my computer."
  • Captain Kathryn Janeway: "I can't say I'm sorry I haven't been flung back to the Delta Quadrant. But it's troubling to me that we risked our careers, our crew, and our lives going down this rabbit hole, and we're still no closer to the truth."
  • choice A
    • Captain: "We may not be anywhere near the bottom yet."
    • Captain Kathryn Janeway: MISSING
  • choice B
    • Captain: "We know the Federation has broken laws."
    • Captain Kathryn Janeway: "Have they? Get the lawyers involved, and we'd have to prove intent, negligence, who knew what and when."
  • choice C
    • Captain: "I was the only one who took any risks here."
    • Captain Kathryn Janeway: MISSING
  • Captain Kathryn Janeway: "I admit, I'm at a crossroads. We can't have anyone conducting these kinds of experiments, especially now, but I doubt much of the galaxy will believe us when we say the experiments have stopped. What's best for the Federation here? What's best for the galaxy?"
  • choice A
    • Captain: "We send our findings to Federation news outlets."
    • Captain Kathryn Janeway: "Agreed. With everything going on, though, I wonder if it'll even make the front page."
  • choice B
    • Captain: "We inform our superiors, let them handle it."
    • Captain Kathryn Janeway: "Technically, I am your superior. And I've decided this information has to be released."
  • choice C
    • Captain: "We keep this to ourselves. Things are bad enough."
    • Captain Kathryn Janeway: MISSING
  • Captain Kathryn Janeway: "If I learn of any more questionable Federation science projects, I'll contact you. Until then, I suppose we're at the mercy of Q. A sobering thought..."
